was Idly wonucrjuB wfc wi -Wed
to build a tavern in such a remote,
ut-oMhe-way spot, when my ears were
uluted by the sound of voices. Now, im
mediately beneath my window there was
a heavy porch, low and squat, from
which Jutted a beam with a broken
llfnboard, and it was from beneath this
porch that the voices proceeded, the one
.loud-and hectoring, the other gruff and

Now it seemed to me that I was back
uSon the road, standing once mote be

Hatched, a small, hunched figure crept
, irom tne jaggea opening in tne trunk, a
l figure with a Jingling pack upon its back,
fat sight of which I turned and ran, filled
rwlth an indescribable terror. But, as

k fatter, but with the Tinker ever at my

door crashed to behind me only Just in
time, and I knew, as I lay there, that
he was standing outside In the moonlight,
(taring up at my casement with his hor-
rioie, dead race.
Here I very mercifully awoke, and lay
for a while blinking in the ghostly ra
diance of the moon, which .was flooding

whether it was owing to the vividness
of my dream I know not, but as I lay,
there leant un within mA n nuririAn mn.

my window. So firmly was I convinced
of this that, moved by a sudden Impulse,

Tho window!" she repeated, trem
bling. "You would find It easy enough with
my help."
"Quick, then!" sho exclaimed, and held
out her hand.
"Walt." snld 1, nnd tunfed back Into
my room. Hereupon, having locked the
door, 1 (rot Into my boots, slipped on my
coat and knapsack, and, last of all, threw
my blackthorn staff out of the window
(where I was sure of finding it) and
climbed out after It.
The porch I have mentioned, upon
which I now stood, sloped steeply down
upon two sides, so that 1 had no llttlo
difficulty In maintaining my foothold; on
the other hand, It was no great dlstnnco
from tho ground, and I thought that It
would be easy enough of descent.
At this moment tho lady renppeared at
the lattice.
"What is it" I whispered, struck by
the terror In her faco.
"Quick!" she cried, forgetting nil pru
dence In her fear, "quick they nro com
ing I hear some one upon the stair. Oh,
you are too latol" and, sinking upon her
knees, she covered her faco with her
hands. Without .moro ado I swung my
self up, and clambered over the sill Into
the room beside her. 1 was looking
round for something that might serve
me for a weapon, when my cyo encoun
tered a tall oak press, a heavy, cumber
some affair, but, save tho bed, tho only
furniture the room possessed. Setting
my shoulder to It therefore, 1 began to
urge It toward the door. But It'waa soon
apparent that I could not get It thero
in time, for the creeping footstep was
already close outside, and, next moment,
a key was softly Inserted In the lock.
"Quick! hide yourself!" I whispered,
over my shoulder, and, stepping back
from the door to give myself room, I
clenched my fists. There was a faint
creak as the key turned, the door was
opened cautiously, and a man's dim fig
ure loomed upon tho threshold.
He had advanced two or three paces
on tlptoo before ho discovered my pres
ence, for tho room was In shadow, nnd
I heard his breath catch, suddenly, and
hiss between his teeth; then, without n
word, ho sprang at me. But as he came,
I leapt aside, and my fist took htm full
and squarely beneath the can He
pitched sideways, nnd, falling heavily,
rolled over upon his back, and lay still.
As I leaned above him, however (for
the blow had been a heavy one), ho ut
tered n groaning oath, whereupon, pin
ning him forthwith by the collar, I
dragged him out Into tho passage, and,
whipping the key from tile lock, trans
ferred it to the Inside and locked tho
door. Waiting for nb more, I set ambled
back through tho casement, and reached
up my hand to the lady.
"Come," said I, and (almost as quickly
ob It takes to set It down hero) she was
bcsldo me upon tho roof ot the porch,
clinging to my arm.
Our further descent to tho ground
proved much more difficult than I had
supposed but, though I could feel her
trembling, my companion obeyed my
whispered instructions, and yielded her
self implicitly to my guidance, so that
we were soon standing In the lane before
tho house, safe and sound except for a
few rents to our garments.
"What is It?" she whispered, seeing me
searching about In tho grass.
"Sly staff," said I, "a faithful friend;
I would not toso it."
"But they will be here In a minute
we Bhall be seen."
"I cannot lose my staff," said I.
"Oh, hurry! hurry!" she cried, wring
ing her hands. And, In a little while,
having found my staff, we turned our
backs upon the tavern and began to run
up the lane, sldo by side. As we went,
came tho slam of a door behind us a
BUdden clamor of voices, followed, a
moment later, by tho sharp report of a
pistol, and. In that same fraction of time,
I stumbled over some unseen obstacle,
and my hat was whisked from my head.
"Aro you hurt?" panted my companion.
"No." said I. "but it was a very excel
lent shot nevertheless!" For, as I picked
up my hat, I saw a small round hole that
pierced It through and through, midway
between crown and brim.
Tho lane wound away between high
hedges, which rendered our going very
dark, for the moon was getting low, and
difficult by reason of the deep wheel ruts,
but we hurried forward notwithstanding,
urged on by the noise of the chase. We
had traversed some half mile thus, when
my ears warned me that our pursuers
were gaining upon us, and I was In
wardly congratulating myself that I had
stopped to find my staff, and wondering
how much execution such a weapon
might reasonably bo capable of, when 1
found that my companion was no longer
at my side.
As I paused, Irresolute, her voice
reached me from the shadow of tho
hedge.
This way," she panted,
"Where?" said I.
"Hero!" and, as she spoke, her hand
slipped Into mine, and so she led me
through a small gate, Into a broad, open
meadow beyond. But to attempt crossing
this would be little short of madness, for
(as I pointed out) we could not go a yard
without being seen.
"No, no," she returned, her breath still
laboring, "watt wait till they are past."
And so, hand In hand, we stood there In
the shadow, screened very effectively
from tho lane by the thick hedge, while
tho rush of our pursuers' feet drew
nearer and nearer: until we could hear a
voice that panted out curses upon the
rturklane. ourselves and everything con-
rcerned, at sound of which my companion
seemed to fall Into a snivenng nt, ner
clasp tightened upon my hand and she
drew closer to me. Thus we remained
until voices and footsteps had grown
faint with distance, but, even then, I
could feel that she was trembling still.
Suddenly sha drew her fingers from mine,
and covered her face with her hands.
"Oh, that man!" she exclaimed, In a
whi'per, "I didn't quite realize till now
what I have escaped. Oh, that beast!"
"Sir Harry Mortimer?" said I.
"You know him?" she cried,.
"Heaven forbid!" I answered, "but I
have seen him once before at Tha Cheq
uers in at Tonbrldge, and I never for
get names or faces especially such as
his"
"How t nate hlml" she whispered.
"An unpleasant animal, to be sure,"
said I. "But come, it were wiser to get
as far from here m possible; they will
doubtless be returning soon."
So we started oft again, running In the
shadow ot the hedge. We had thus
doubled back upon our pursuers, and,
leaving the tavern upon our left, soon
gained the kindly shadow of those woods
through which I had passed in the early
evening.
Borne to ui upon the geptle wind was
the haunting perfume of hidden flowers,
and the sinking moon sent long shaft of
silvery light to pierce the leafy gloom,
and make the shadows more mysterious.
The path we followed was very narrow,
so that sometimes my companion's silken
hair brushed my brow or cheek, as I
stooped to lift some trailing branch that
barred her way. or open a. path for her
through the leave.
Ho we Journeyed on through tho mys
teries of the woods, together

"H It fur to Cranbrook?"
One mile this way, but two by the

"You 'seem very well acquainted with
those parts," said I.
"I have lived hero nil my life; those are
the Cnmliounio Woods over there"
'Cambourne Woodsl" said I.
'Tart of the Sefton estates." she con
tinued; "Cnmbourne village lies to the
right, beyond."
"The Lady Sophia Sefton of Cam
bourne!" said I thoughtfully.
"My dearest friend," nodded my com
panion. "They say she Is very Handsome,"
said I.
"Then they speak truth, sir."
'She has been described to me." I went
on, "as a l'each, a Goddess, and a Plum;
which should jou consider the most
proper term?" My compnnlon shot nn
arch glance at me from the corners of
her eyes, and I saw a dimple come and
go, beside the curve of her mouth,
"Goddess, to be sure." nld she,
"peaches have such rough skins, and
plums are upt to bo sticky."
"And goddesses," I ndded, "were nil
very well upon Olympus, but. In this
matter-of-fact age, must be Badly out of
place. Speaking for myself "
"Have you ever seen this particular
Goddess?" Inquired my companion.
"Never."
"Then wait until you have sir."
The moon was down now, yet the sum
mer sky was wonderfully luminous and
In the east I almost fancied I could de
tect the first faint gleam of day. And
after we had traversed some distance In
silence, my companion suddenly spoke,
but without looking at me.
"You have never once asked who I nm,"
she said, almost reproachfully I thought,
"nor how I camo to bo shut up In such a
place with such a man."
"Why, as to that," I answered, "I
make It a general rule to avoid awkward
subjects when I can, nnd never to ask
questions that It will be difficult to an
swer." "I should find not tho least difficulty In
answering cither," said she.
"Besides," I continued, "It Is no affair
of mine, after all."
"Oh! said she, turning away from me;
and then, very slowly: "No, I suppose
not."
"Certainly not," I added; "how should
It be?"
'How Indeed!" said she, over her shoul
der. And then I saw that she wns angry,
and wondered.
"And ot," I went on, after a lapse of
silence, "I think I could have answered
both questions the momentl Baw you at
your casement."
'Oh!" said she this time In a tone of
surprise, nnd her anger all gone again,
for I saw that she was smiling; nnd
again I wondered.
"Yes," I nodded.
"Then." said she, seeing I was silent,
'whom do jou suppose mc?"
"Your arc, to the best of my belief, tho
Lady Helen Dunstan." My companion
stood still, and regarded me for a mo
ment In wide-eyed astonishment.
"And how, sir, pray, did you learn all
this?" she demanded, with the dimple
once more peeping at me slyly from the
corner of her pretty mouth.
"By tho very simple method of adding
two and two together," I answered;
"moreover, no longer ago than yesterday
I broke bread with a certain Mr. Bev-crley-7
"
I heard her breath come In a sudden
gasp, and next moment she was peering
up Into my face, while her hands beat
upon my breast with soft, quick little
taps.
"Beverly!" she whispered. "Beverly!
no, no why, they told me Sir Harry told
me that Peregrine lay dying at Ton
bridge. "Then Sir Harry Mortimer Hod .to you,"
said I, "for no longer ago than yesterday
afternoon I sat In a ditch eating bread
and cheese with a Mr. Peregrine Bev
erley." "Oh! aro you sure are you sure?"
"Quite sure. And, as we ate, he told
me many things, and among them of a
life of wasted opportunities of foolish
riot, and prodigal extravagance, and of
Its logical consequence want."
"My poor Perry!" she murmured.
"He spoke also of his love for a very
beautiful and good woman, and Its hope
lessness." "My dear, dear Perry!" said she again.
"And yet," said I, "all this is admit
tedly his own fault, and, as I think,
Hcraclltus says: 'Suffering Is the Inevit
able consequence of Sin, or Folly.' "
"And he Is well?" sho asked; "quite
quite well?"
"Ho Is," said I
"Thank God!" sho whispered. "Tell
me," sho went on, "Is he so very, very
poor Is he much altered? I have not
seen lilm for a whole, long year."
'Why, a year Js apt to change a man,"
I ansnered. "Adversity Is a hard school,
but sometimes a very good one."
"Were he changed, no matter how
were he a beggar upon the roads, I
should love him always!" said she,
speaking softly In that soft, caressing
voice which only the best of women pos
sess. "Yes, I had guessed as much," said I,
and found myself sighing.
"A year Is a long, long time, and we
wtsre to have been married this month,
but my father quarreled with him and for
bade him the house, so poor Perry went
back to London. Then we heard he was
ruined, and I almost died with grief
you see, his very poverty only made me
love him the more. Yesterday that
man"
"Sir Hairy Mortimer?" said I,
"Yea (ho was a friend ot whom I had
often heard Perry speak); and he told
me that Perry lay at Tonbrldge, dying,
and begglog to see me before the end.
He offered to escort ma to him, assuring
me that I could reach home again long
before dusk. My father, who I knew
would never permit me to go, was absent,
and so I ran away. Sir Harry had a
carriage waiting, but, almost as soon as
the door was closed upon us, and we
had started, I began to be afraid of him
and and "
"Sir Harry, as I said before, is an un
pleasant animal," I nodded.
"Thank Heaven," she pursued, "we had
not gone very far before the chaise broke
down! And the rest you know."
The footpath we had been following
now led over a stile Into a narrow lane
or byway. ery soon we came, to a high
ctone wall, wherein was set a small
wicket. Through this she led me, and
we entered a broad park, where was in
avenue ot fine old trees, beyond which
I saw the gables of a house, for the
tar had long since paled to the dawn,
and there was a. glory In the east.
"Your father will be rejoiced to have
you safe back again," said I.
"Ye," he nodded; "but ho will bo very
angry." And, hereupon, she stopped and
begau to pull, and twist, and pat her
khlnlng hair with dexterous white lingers,
talking thus the while;
"My mother died at my birth, and alnce
then father ha worshipped her memory,
and hi face alway grow wonderfully
gentle when he look Upon her portrait
They say I'm greatly like her though
he wa a famous beauty In her day.
And, indeed, I think there must be some
truth In it, tor, no matter how I may
put him out, my father can never be ytry
angry when my hair 1 dressed so."
With tho word he turned, and truly I
thought the face peeping out from It
clustered curls more lovaly and bewitch
ing than before,
I very much doubt If any WWI ooUUJ,
